Nice boutique hotel outside the hustle and bustle of the central district. Easy to and from airport and private car can be arranged. Very courteous and pleasant staff. Especially high marks for Menuka at the front desk who was extremely helpful and accommodating. Several food options available within the property itself including a French restaurant and next door great coffee and lunch at Cafe Himalaya Rooms were wel appointed with balconies. Hotel is filled with many artificers and artwork from the Maharaja era. Very cool. Room rates were also quite reasonable and daily breakfast was included. Also, had drinks at the K2 lounge, which were well crafted.

This property was truly wonderful. We stayed there twice and loved it! The rooms were charming and they fit a lot into this hotel - even a pool and gym. Chez Caroline is attached - amazing French food, and they have a restaurant with authentic Nepalese Thali food and entertainment. They helped us with transportation, and everyone was always friendly and helpful. LOVED it. There are also a few stores attached, including cute gift shops, clothing shops, and a place for mani/pedis. We just loved our stay there and highly recommend it.

The room was so beautifully designed, patio had so much seating space. Restaurants had such great tasting food. The folk dance dinner event was mindblowing. We had a great time. Staff was so hepful in arranging our spa tratment and outdoor activities including money exchange. Very friendly and helpful. My stay was for 3 days and there was always some fun event going on. The art gallery to shopping at babar mahal is definitely a must. Lots of beautiful photo moments. I definitely would go again.
